Flowers in the Garden of Life: JustRite Mega March Blog Hop

Good morning, and welcome to one stop along the way in Day Three of the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop, with eighty-eight designers playing along--wow!

I chose an image from the 3-1/4" My Garden Borders and Centers set, paired with a 3-1/4" round wood stamper. I've used the morning glory image for a couple of cards before, but I made blue or purple morning glories in those. Today I wanted to play with a pink morning glory and some new pink patterned papers from Prima's new Flights of Fancy Collection (Tiptoe and Miss Pretty).

I colored the focal image with the Copic Markers and Spica Glitter pens pictured below. (Click on any image to see it larger.)

After coloring my image, I stamped it a second time in ColorBox Rouge ink and used two Spellbinders Plain Circle Nestability dies to cut, emboss, and mask the edges while I airbrushed some Copic R22 (not in picture) and YG63 lightly on the sentiment. I matted my double-layered focal image using a Labels 1 die. The pink silk ribbon is by May Arts and the buttons are from Papertrey Ink (Sweet Blush and New Leaf). The rhinestone in the center of the larger morning glory is an A Muse twinkle Sticker.

Now, for the blog candy part of this hop: there are 33 participants in the Day Three leg of the JustRite Mega March Blog Hop.
